I've recently received a report that my application, fetchmail, should call OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms(), see http://bugs.debian.org/576430 Apparently OpenSSL 0.9.8 does not load SHA256.
If this is needed, please document this requirement on the manpages crypto(3), ssl(3), and SSL_library_init(3). Fetchmail isn't using any EVP stuff besides EVP_md5, so the requirement to call _add_all_algorithms() was unknown to the authors. Also, SSL_library_init(3) contains pointers to RAND_* initialization, however it does not link to EGD related pages. As a general remark, it is very disappointing to see a "1.0.0" with a documentation that is so incomplete, so full of "TBD", "TBA" and similar remarks. -- Matthias Andree ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org Development Mailing List [email protected] Automated List Manager [email protected]
